Thirtysomething1987
Melissa Steadman:
Nana, really. I'd really rather talk here.
Rose Waldman:
Okay. Go on, go on. Talk, talk.
Melissa Steadman:
Nana, what you want me to do. What you've offered me. It's incredible! The store. It's your life. I'll always be grateful that you wanted me to take it, that you saw me that way.
Rose Waldman:
Melissa. I see you in this business with me. Till I die, and then it's yours. I was rich a long time ago. I could have stopped, but I didn't. I had to get this ready to give to someone.
Melissa Steadman:
But you've given me so much already. How can I ever thank you?
Rose Waldman:
I don't want you to thank me. I want to help you.
Melissa Steadman:
I don't need you to help me.
Rose Waldman:
Yes, you do. I know what's good for you.
Melissa Steadman:
Nana, the store, it's... I wouldn't be happy. It's not my life.
Rose Waldman:
[laughing sarcastically] Your life? What's your life? You snap a few pictures, you live like a bum, you dress like a freak. Do you have a meaningful relationship? A husband? A family? Oh. You want to be free. Independent. Great! But you don't fool me, Melissa. You never have. I wouldn't be who I am if I didn't know what is best for the people I love!
Melissa Steadman:
You don't know what's best for me.
Rose Waldman:
Yes I do.
Melissa Steadman:
[having had enough] You didn't do this for me, Rose. You did it for you. You don't know me. You've never known me. You never have. You can have this. All of it! I love you, Nana. But you can't have me!
Rose Waldman:
[stopping Melissa on her way out] Okay. Tomorrow I change my Will. And you'll have nothing. But you'll be happy, and I want you to be happy. I'll be dead, and you'll have nothing! Do you hear me, Melissa? Melissa! Melissa! Melissa...!
